I’m the Roger Moore generation.

I mean you’d be pretty unhappy in the role if they made you do your own stunt of getting repeatedly whipped in the balls in Casino Royale, which I have on good authority they did repeatedly to Craig even when the cameras weren’t rolling, and just as a lark between scenes in the sequels.

I’m going to go out on a limb here so bear with me but maybe would it have been better to cast as James Bond someone happier to be there if it bothered him so much? Just putting that out there.

I’d be miserable too if I was starring in Spectre.

I think it just sticks with people because the premise is fun/memorable, and that’s enough to be a Christmas “classic”.

Maybe a controversial take but The Santa Clause 2 wasn’t very good either. Come to think of it, the original Santa Clause isn’t good.

I figured “hubris” was just a code for that very thing.

“The team at the North Pole, including star Tim Allen, was too high on their own supply of gingerbread and eggnog to recognize this movie in which Santa fights Jack Frost for control of the holiday season was on the naughty list.”

This is kind of mystifying. Vivien Leigh’s wikipedia page, which lists all of her theatrical roles, does not list her ever being in Merry Wives of Windsor

I remember going through IMDB and being shocked he was this old and still alive. I was glad. We all gotta go sometime but 98 is a pretty good length of time.  My one regret is he didn't outlast Henry Kissenger. 

Ding dong!  A real legend in the UK - he was a less caddish version of Terry-Thomas.

He even performed with Vivian Leigh at the Royal Shakespeare Company, in a 1996 production of The Merry Wives of Windsor

He has 174 imdb credits going back to the 30s

He was the most famous man to ever play a hat. 

Oh, look what coincidentally just dropped in the last few hours.

When she also pointed out “Monica Vitti is dead” was the icing on the cake on that line. That and the “So she’ll be sleeping with your father?” I agree that she’s my favorite and that I hope we get to see more of her this season.

Agreed. That remark and Jennifer Coolidge getting the bug caught in her throat during the vespa ride were the highlights of the episode for me.

So, Harper and Ethan’s marriage: He doesn’t want to get caught masturbating to the porn, so he quickly closes the laptop and pulls up the undies. Which looks like trying to hide something from Harper. Which is bad. But when the evidence of his activity is obvious, he doesn’t lie to his wife. Which is good. But when…

Valentina’s bluntness continues to be my favorite part of this season. When she guessed Peppa Pig when Tanya asked her to guess who she was trying to look like, hilarious. Completely agree that the show could use more of her and the staff.

“we’re all snobs, in different ways” ain’t that the truth.
